Pietsch has made every involvement good so far

Canes4life

🍑 is having a great game.

NTA

Fucking drilled them. Porter is shit.

Kirwan

fight, fight, fight!

African Monkey

First game I've really been able to watch this series. Skelton makes a big difference to this Wallabies pack.

Canes4life

Wallabies bringing the fire tonight. Love to see it.

mariner4life

Utter bullshit

Fuck off ref.

Incredible how much he improved from his time in the Waratahs back then

Duluth

Impressive phases from the Wallabies given the conditions

Canes4life

Wallabies playing all the rugby this half. Make it count.

Tordah

Yup going to Europe has helped him use his size properly.

Like an Aussie/Samoan version of Luke Romano, but taller.

NTA

Hands are good from both sides considering conditions

NTA

Yeah alright fellas it's a knock on. Don't blow your wad with 50 to go

Kirwan

Handling from Oz is very impressive. Skelton is going to end up in the bin

Take the 3 you fluffybunnies

NTA

Skelton niggling Porter. You love to see it

Tordah

James Ryan looks like an oversized 12 year old bully living in an English boarding school because not even his parents loved his ugly mug

NTA

Lions have had no ball. Once they get it, things will turn

mariner4life

Not straight sir!!!

Tordah

terrible refereeing "no hands" as Wright was clearly allowde AND ABLE to steal that after the little Russel quick tap

Aussies defence has been huge.

NTA

Ryan can't handle the niggle. Lol

Canes4life

Fk I hope Skelton puts a hit on Owen

Canes4life

That Sheehan clean out on Lynagh should have been looked at. Defs a card.

I hope Farrell puts a shoulder into some one and finally gets a red card

Wallaby pack bringing great physicality.

Best Aussie forward performance I’ve seen in about 15 years. Barring the fk up for sure.

Tordah

Very good first half Wallabies. Few mistakes, good defensive pressure, Lions not offering a lot so far against solid Aussie defence.

Lots of stuff being let go at the breakdown. Tupou off his feet a couple of times diving into or over the ruck, also took one Lion's legs out

NTA

Sheehan very lucky not to be sitting on the sideline

After game 2, you would think they'd be watching out for that

By the same token, the penalty for holding on was pretty laughable when the wallaby was well off his feet and didn't even attempt to lift until he was fully lying horizontal.

Wallabies are gonna be battle hardened for the RC ..handing and physicality in these conditions has been superb
Skelton may need to rope it in

Yes, but I only point out the mistakes against the team I'm rooting for

Wurzel

If the Wallabies can bring this intensity against the All Blacks I’ll be very concerned

The first game in SA will be their big chance

@canefan its great to see we need a competitive Wallaby team
